Service Terms

Service Area and Availability

Our services are available within our designated Service Area in the Chicago and Chicagoland region. Service availability may be limited by weather conditions, technician availability, and other factors beyond our control.

We reserve the right to decline service requests outside our Service Area or when we determine that we cannot safely or effectively provide the requested services.

Scheduling and Appointments

Regular Service Appointments:

  • Service appointments must be scheduled in advance through our Website or by calling (872) 234-1019.

  • Emergency service rates apply and will be disclosed before work begins.
  • We will make reasonable efforts to respond to emergency calls promptly but cannot guarantee specific response times.

Cancellation Policy

  • Customer Cancellations: Customers may cancel or reschedule appointments with at least 24 hours notice during business hours without penalty. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours notice may incur a service call fee.

  • Warranty service requires retention of original work order documentation and is conditional on payment in full.
  • Warranty work must be performed by Frontline Heating & Cooling LLC. Service performed by a third party voids the labor warranty.

Notwithstanding any damages that You might incur, the entire liability of the Company and any of its suppliers under any provision of these Terms and Your exclusive remedy for all of the foregoing shall be limited to the amount actually paid by You for the specific service that gave rise to the claim, or $1,000, whichever is greater.

Excluded Damages

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Company or its suppliers be liable for any special, incidental, indirect, or consequential damages whatsoever including, but not limited to:
